Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 569, page 565: A Vow Spanning Thirty Million Years! Shining Ultra!

Luluye, 30 million years ago.

After a fierce battle, six Zoga were killed, and the remaining two broke through the encirclement in the chaos, screeching as they fled into the darkness of the distant sky.

This result is hardly something to be happy about.

These evil birds are too powerful. Apart from Tiga and Seven being able to deal with them individually, it usually takes four or more ordinary giants of light working together to barely suppress them.

"Fortunately, the last two Zoga were injured and couldn't go far. We just need to find them and take them down," Daya said.

Gai Ying pointed to a Zoga corpse on the ground: "No, these are just the vanguard. There will be a steady stream of Zoga coming to pay homage to that 'evil god' in the deep sea."

Although he had just demonstrated a formidable physique capable of contending with Zoga in the battle, unlike Hikari, he was clearly not skilled in combat, and his performance was only mediocre.

His words horrified many of the Giants of Light: "Will they keep coming? What is an evil god?"

Seven's heart skipped a beat: "The evil god, is it Gatanothor?"

“Gatanjeor? Is that what you call it?” Gai Ying said slowly.

When these giants of light descended upon this planet, Gai Ying keenly sensed that an extremely terrifying being lurking in the depths of the ocean.

Once it takes action, it can destroy everything in an instant.

Therefore, he believed that the existence of beings in the deep sea posed a far greater threat than the Dark Giant, and so he continued to explore.

"The evil god in the sea also comes from outer space, and arrived much earlier than us. It may have destroyed more than one civilization and is currently sleeping."

“Those monsters called ‘Zoga’ were a vassal race of this Gatanothor from his time on another planet. They came on a pilgrimage to awaken the evil god.”

"I've been thinking about whether there's a way to keep the evil god asleep forever, otherwise it will be a huge problem once it wakes up."

Daya: "Is that evil god very strong?"

Gai Ying simply said, "If it wakes up and starts causing destruction, even if thousands of you went up, you wouldn't stand a chance."

A chill ran down everyone's spine; the vast difference in strength left the Giant of Light speechless.

"Zoga, you evil god, when will this ever end!" A giant of light stared at the camp, now a scene of utter devastation caused by Zoga's rampage, and at the corpses of his companions and humans, and couldn't help but roar in fury.

He expressed everyone's thoughts.

When we saw Tiga transform into a giant of light, turn from enemy to friend, and seal away Camilla and the three dark giants, many people felt that good days were finally coming.

They will soon be able to wipe out the remaining dark giants, defeat the evil monsters of Golzairba, and bring lasting peace to the planet.

As a result, one problem after another arose.

Upon learning that the terrifyingly powerful Zoga would continue to descend, along with an evil god that seemed utterly invincible, everyone felt a sense of gloom about the future.

How long will this war last? How many more comrades will fall on this endless road?
Will the dawn we've been waiting for finally arrive if we fight to the very end?
As a human, Bizaru was also extremely depressed.

Is suffering endless?
Is this their fate? Is humanity destined to endlessly fight against darkness, struggling to survive amidst blood and fire, with no peace ever to come?

If we keep going down this road, will there really be an end? Will the end truly lead to a bright future?

The giants of light were all heavy-hearted. Hope had just begun to sprout when a new despair enveloped them, dampening their morale.

After a moment's consideration, and once everyone had processed their emotions, Moroboshi Dan stepped forward.

Having been a team captain for so long, he has also developed some eloquence in guiding and encouraging his teammates when they are feeling lost.

"Where there is light, there will be darkness, and it is precisely because of the existence of darkness that there is light."

"In the future I have experienced, disasters continue to strike, and darkness has never completely left."

"But humanity has never given up hope, and the Ultra Warriors have always been fighting."

"No matter what difficulties we encounter, there will always be someone who steps forward, shoulders the burden, and forges a new future."

Dan Moroboshi's strong and resonant tone invigorated many people.

"As long as we are united and have an unwavering will, we can overcome any darkness we face!"

"That's how Qi Ming and I have come this far!"

"Everyone, do not be confused. No matter now or in the future, no matter how the darkness spreads, let us use our light to illuminate the world!"

Dan Moroboshi's words were like a war drum striking the soul, and his soaring emotions infected everyone.

"Good!" The giants of light were energized again. They looked at Seven and Tiga standing at the front and nodded heavily.

..........................................

Thirty million years later.

After confirming that Ultraman Tiga had died, the Armored Emperor was about to use his trident to lift up his body and, in the manner of a victor, deliver a fatal blow to Father of Ultra.

He walked slowly forward, speaking in a deep voice:

"Clan of Light, no matter how much you struggle, it's all over."

"Next, I will destroy the Kingdom of Light, reign supreme over the universe, and forge eternity with darkness!"

As he was talking, he suddenly noticed something and stopped in his tracks.

Beside the lifeless corpse of Ultraman Tiga, a golden glint suddenly appeared in the eyes of a giant stone statue.

The golden light illuminated the marks left by the stone statue over thirty million years, and also brought that distant vow back to the present.

Immediately afterwards, as if awakened by this first light, the shattered stone statues around Tiga began to glow with a dazzling golden light.

The beams of light magnified, dispelling the ancient darkness within the ruins like a tidal wave, and tearing a hole in the Dark Emperor's terrifying aura, which was as suffocating as an abyss.

"What's going on!" Carmila was shocked as she felt the pure energy contained within the light.

She had just checked these stone statues with Qi Ming, but they were clearly just cold, broken stones.

Even if it was once a powerful giant of light, it should have been completely destroyed after being shattered like this and eroded by the passage of 30 million years.

But now...

Inside the cockpit of the Atlas, gazing at the ever-brightening lights, Saijo Nagi, who possessed the potential to be an apex predator, seemed to sense something and murmured dreamily:
"It was those ancient warriors who fought against the darkness their entire lives, awakened by the terrifying darkness that tore apart the light..."

The dignity and will that once existed remain in the broken stone statue; they have never been completely erased, but have simply fallen into slumber!

Now, the souls of the ancient warriors have been revived, and their light is rising!

They unleash an indomitable will from a world of death to pave the way for the living!
Under everyone's shocked gaze, hundreds and thousands of rising rays of light converged above Tiga, who was Qi Ming, whom Dan Moroboshi had once called the "bearer of the burden and thorns" of this era, and became a dazzling ball of light!

"Your Majesty, the situation has changed! I'm going to shatter that nasty light!" Grozam, standing behind the armored emperor, felt a surge of unease rising within him.

He stepped forward to deal with this terrible turn of events.

The Armored Emperor gazed at the dazzling light, extended his trident, and blocked Grozam's advance. Then, before everyone's eyes, the brilliant orb of light, gathered from the ancient warriors, transformed into a mighty torrent of light, pouring down upon the lifeless Tiga below!

In an instant, intense and sacred light emanated, illuminating the entire ruins as if it were daytime, and every broken stone wall and speck of dust seemed to be baptized by the pure light.

"Cha!" With a loud battle cry, a giant enveloped in golden light suddenly stood up!
After being given a final ray of light by the ancient warriors, Tiga regained his life and revived in an unprecedentedly supreme state!
Shining Tiga, here he comes!
Faced with this sudden burst of light, the Alien Empera, accustomed to ruling darkness, instinctively raised his armored right hand to shield his eyes.

But he quickly realized what was happening, lowered his hand, and looked directly at the immense power that not only illuminated the ruins but also tried to cleanse all darkness.

"Tiga, Qi Ming has come back to life!"

"Such powerful strength... We're sure to win this time!"

Shining Tiga.

Qi Ming sensed many things, including the vast and pure sacred energy, as well as a steadfast belief in protection that has transcended thirty million years.

"Thank you, Captain. Thank you to the ancient warriors who have always thought of this world."

The next moment, Qi Ming moved!

Shining Tiga unleashed a golden beam that pierced the heavens and earth, bursting forth towards the sky!

The light tore through the sky, pierced the thick clouds that the Alien Empera had shrouded the heavens, and struck directly at the sun that the Alien Empera had extinguished with his powerful telekinesis!

"boom!"

With a silent roar, the endless sunspots covering the sun's surface shattered like fragile glass.

The dark shackles that imprisoned the light were broken, and blazing golden light once again surged from the surface of the star, spreading outward at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The sun has risen again!

The light will shine upon the earth once more!

..........................................

Outside Luluye, the lingering power of the emperor's extinguishing of the sun, which had occurred half a minute earlier, still permeated the air.

In the dim, unsettling light, the shadow of the defeat of many powerful Ultra Warriors weighed heavily on everyone's hearts like a boulder.

People on the street stared at the dark sky, their faces filled with bewilderment and fear, a sense of unease about the future spreading silently.

But this unease was quickly dispelled.

"That is!"

In Osaka, Fujimiya, having painstakingly destroyed another Impreza, leaned against a stone pillar, exhausted and de-transforming.

He had just felt a strange palpitation for some reason.

But when they saw the golden beam of light that Shining Tiga unleashed, piercing through the universe, all the oppression dissipated.

Just then, the cracks in the dark clouds, torn apart by the light, spread across the sky above his head.

A ray of fresh, warm sunlight pierced through and gently fell on his dusty face.

On the other side, Leo and Tregear, their color timers flashing, arrived at Father of Ultra, who was severely injured and unable to move, and helped him up.

Torregia: "Captain, what should we do now?"

Father of Ultra: "Emperor Alien is going to deal with Qi Ming, let's rush to help him."

Leo nodded: "The captain is already gone, I can't lose Senior Qi Ming too."

“Help? I’d only be a burden if I went there…” Torregia lowered his head. He wasn’t afraid of dying, but he was afraid of doing the wrong thing.

Suddenly, sensing something, he looked towards R'lyeh and saw a dazzling beam of light bursting forth, tearing through the gloom that enveloped the world and illuminating the faces of the three.

Gazing at that dawn-breaking attack, Father of Ultra slowly spoke: "The light of the sun shining on Earth will never disappear."

As the dazzling golden light unleashed by Shining Tiga pierced the sky, Makoto Aizen, who was unconscious in the TPC infirmary, seemed to be summoned and regained a faint consciousness.

"Is that light...? It's so warm..."

Jugglus Juggler emerges from the damaged Asgard; Yamanaka parachutes from the crashed Flying Swallow 1; Kishida is trapped on the seabed and unable to surface; Jun Himeya wears a coat; and Staff Officer He Zhi paces anxiously at the sea base…

Not only them, but all living beings on Earth, no matter where they were, felt the same way and looked in the direction of R'lyeh.

They looked up at the sky, watching the clouds shatter, and welcomed the sunlight that once again illuminated the earth, witnessing together this "Time of Dawn"!
Luluye ruins.

Seeing Shining Tiga's beam of light relight the world, Zamsha, the Gregor, and Grozam were stunned.

The Armored Emperor remained fearless: "Didn't I tell you? The Ultra Warriors can't beat me!"

He fired another [Rezolim Beam], aiming straight at Shining Tiga.

Shining Tiga neither dodged nor evaded. The dark red light struck the golden light surrounding Shining Tiga, but it didn't even cause a ripple before completely dissipating.

This is the [Shining Ring Shield] that can deflect all attacks!
"What!" The Armored Emperor was shocked to see that his proud ultimate move had no effect at all.

The next moment, Shining Tiga swung his arms, turning them from the outside inwards to the color timer, gathering light energy, condensing it into his right fist, and then unleashing a golden spiral shockwave.

This is [Shining Burst]!
Struck by this attack, the once arrogant Armored Emperor staggered back several steps, a clearly visible crack appearing on the chest of his dark armor.

The attack worked!
"Your Majesty, I'm here to help you!" Grozam said, disregarding everything else.

In response, Qi Ming once again gathered his light energy and unleashed a golden, spiraling shockwave at Grozam, blasting it toward its head.

This is [Shining Destruction]!
This lightning-fast strike was so fast that Grozam had no time to react.

The divine energy disintegrated his physical structure, and his body was completely annihilated in an instant, blown to pieces, and reduced to nothingness.

Grozam, confirmed dead!
The Guregor people standing nearby stared wide-eyed.

Grozam, whom he, Zamsha, and that submarine called Dyna had attacked for so long without success, was now kicked to death?

So strong!

We can win! If we keep going like this, we're guaranteed to win!

"Whoosh!" A purple light appeared and floated into the Ultraman's random button, whose appearance was changing.

As if bathed in dazzling light, the outer ring of Ultraman's random key is now coated with a layer of gold.

This familiar scene reminded Qi Ming of the time during the Monster Graveyard battle when he transformed into Ultraman Max and directly fused with the Plasma Spark Tower, and the random key was plated with a silver edge.

Is the shimmering light also upgrading any key?
